I'm trying to identify this cauldron to see what its original purpose was and I'm hopeful that I can use it for smelting large volumes of WW. I'm a new member and have not begun to cast yet but I'm getting closer. To my knowledge it was at our farm in the mid 60's when my parents moved in. It is a large and thick walled cauldron with the name "Fire-Armor" as well as a serial number cast in to it.
Any recommendations on best practices of using this for smelting are greatly appreciated. FYI I wear a size 13 shoe to give it some perspective and it's thickness is 1 1/4" thick or more. It's a two man job just to pick it up empty to load in a pick up. I saw one try and fail lol.
Thanks guys

Sure hope these work because I'm out of ideas and patience. I did read the posts on adding pics🤔
